This is even worse than no documentation.

The example cannot work: the arguments must be numbers, not strings.

Why make DirtyRateQuotaVcpu a separate type? Why not
{ 'command': 'set-dirty-limit',
'data': { 'idx': 'int', 'dirtyrate': 'uint64' } }

Overall, documentation is too terse. What is a "dirty rate of vcpu",
and why should I care? Is it related to query-dirty-rate?
Nitpick: you use both "vcpu" and "vCPU" in comments. Stick to the
latter, please.
